After 350 mythril (my total allowed), the final tally is countless 3 and 4*s, but the big prizes are:
1x Grand Armor
1x Nu Khai Armband
1x Defender
5x Kaiser Shield (the hell, game?)
Spellbinder Dagger, Chameleon Robe and various off-banner 5 stars that will all become Rosetta Stones before long.
300 mythril to spend on banners going forward, likely 150 on FF6, 150 on FFXII and then saving the haul for BSB fest.
Welp, I'm out. 450 mythril spent in the blink of an eye
Ended up with 5 chameleos robes, the ice rod, an off banner robe, 2 off banner swords, ramaza's bracer, kaiser plate and defender. defender and bracer were the last 2 orbs of my last pull which made me go from semi-suicidal to just sad.
That makes me... 550 mythril in for wall and 450 mythril in for platinum sword and haven't managed either one
Spent 100 mythril and gotten both Grand Armor and Kaizer Shield. I'm gonna stop and think a few days to decide if I wanna chase Platinum Sword. I'm sure I can RW a bunch of screams and be in great shape, I should just hold my Mythril for the Braska event.
Hopes for thease pulls, one item for Ramza, one for Agrias, no real preferences.
100-some 3*
First 11 - spell binder and chameleon Robe (alright, fine get the chaff out first)
2nd- one rainbow but its defender, woo! (Halfway there)
3rd- again, one rainbow, again something for Agrias (Kaiser shield, not bad, Ramza still feels left out)
4th- 4 rainbow orbs! Chameleon robe, Zantetsuken (VI, what the duece) Thunder rod (IV, this and the shield will make Terra a thunder goddess I guess) but finally a Tactis unique SB... of Kaiser shield.
So tempted to just whale for one more pull...

FUCK, nothing on the last pull. Do I go over budget? Mmm, I'm thinking no, the odds are really bad of getting any of the other three SB pieces.
Yay for being statistically below expected value, as per usual, though I did walk away with the booby prize.
Still, it hurts still not having a Medica of any kind, AND nothing for Agrias.
Slightly above average on quantity, slightly below on quality.
Guess my A team going forward is going to be Yuffie w/ Clear Tranquil, Agrias w/ both, Garnet w/ Divine Guardian, Lightning w/ Crushing Blow and whoever I feel like on support. I like that team in my mind, but without native Shout or Wall I know that Ultimates aren't going to be that much easier for me which is a bummer with U+ coming out relatively soon.

I got a Zantetsuken too! I forgot since I combined it. That's random.
...Quickly ran through FFT stuff to scrape up the last mythril I needed, which was more like 4 than 10 because I forget things easily. Last* 11 draw... 3 rainbows, my most ever!
Nu-Khai
Grand Armor
Defender
I now have 100% of Ramza's soul breaks and Agrias's SSB. Cursed myself out of the thing that I said I wanted the most and got everything else. My Ramza will be destroyer of everything.
*Also, this apparently runs for 12 days until the 16th. That's more than enough time to collect 50 mythril from the story dungeons for another try if you haven't run those dry yet.
8 pulls, only got Defender and Nu Khai (his worst break!) from the good items. It's a bit frustrating because I have tried on basically every banner with a decent Hastega and I just cannot land one.

But platinum sword is so shiny
Totally stop now, IMO. RW a mountain of shouts, and enjoy having a good medica on a great support as well as a great mitigation + damage tool on a great knight, IMO.
Um. Assuming you have a wall. If you don't have a wall, I guess you could consider chasing the Platinum Sword a little longer, so you can keep RWing walls.
Not drawing any of Ramza's Relics kind of sucks, no reason to use him, but Red XIII is sitting there with his shiny SSB calling my name. I got Yuffie with her sweet Medica, and Agrias. Agrias who I used every battle in FFT despite being outclassed by every Spellblade in that game. The OG.
I'm realizing that I'll probably never be happy with my Relic Pulls, no matter what I get.
S'probably why I don't like doing them. They stress me out and always ruin my mood.
Aside: where is everyone getting 1000 Mythril?!
I hadn't spent a mythril in... 4 months? I'd have been ecstatic with my pulls if I had gotten SG on banner 5 in place of one of the two extra Cardinals, or Platinum sword in place of one of the 6 robes I drew on this one so I could RW the other. If I got SG I was actually going to stop on Kaiser, Defender, or Platinum.
8 pulls, only got Defender and Nu Khai (his worst break!) from the good items. It's a bit frustrating because I have tried on basically every banner with a decent Hastega and I just cannot land one.
I have 2 walls, 3 Medicas, and I've never been able to land a Hastega. Oh well, that's why my RW list is all Hastegas.
So 150 mythril and 100 gems for a Chameleon Robe and a Spellbinder. Crap. There's the instant payback for getting SG on a 100 gem pull. I see now how they get you. I was tempted to blow 3000 of my xmas gems for another try. I'll keep it for the 100 gem pulls.
Jesus how much mythril did this thread just blow altogether? Wow.
Reviewing...
~490 mythril + 600 gems spent over the fest/FFT. (75 on lucky draws, 100 on banner 4, 165 on banner 5, 150 on FFT) for a total of 130 relics.
Booty acquired:
Kefka's harp Exdeath's runic Aerith's SSB
Edgar's drill Tyro's SG Lightning's SSB Ramza's EVERYTHING Agrias's SSB
Random off-banner shield A
Random off-banner shield B
Yeah, I think I made a biiiiiiiiiit of a drastic leap upward in power, although my RS armor situation is still fairly lacking. Despite coming in slightly under expected percentage for sheer quantity of rainbows, I think I more than made up for it by getting most of the best stuff I could.
And I'm down to 13 Mythril. No Wall, no Scream, but it's still been a really insane couple weeks for me, pulls wise. I can scrape up another 37 mythril before Tactics ends pretty easily, but if I can bring Galuf + Red XIII or Lulu + Kefka to a fight, then I don't really need Scream and I can continue to RW Wall.
Might do two single pulls and then just start catching up on events instead of worrying about another 11 pull.

PS. ewFR for level capped Ramza Shout with MND gear (Save the Queen+, Keepsake Ribbon, New Beginnings Sphere)
I'm happy I got Defender and bracer right at the end there since only getting Kaiser would probably have baited me into my first lol way too much money pull.
edit: guess I can do this too. 3 lucky pulls, 1 pull on banner 1, 4 pulls on banner 5, 9 pulls on FFT and 100 gem on everything.
Ended up with
Lucky:
Edward's Harp
Golbez' Axe
Rikku's Fist
Vivi's Mace of Zeus
Red's Gold Hairpin
FFT:
lol 5 Chameleos Robes
1 Ice Rod Agrias' Kaiser Shield
Agrias' Defender
2nd FF5 Flametongue
2nd FF6 starter sword I can't spell
Ramaza's Bracer
So basically exactly statistically what you'd expect. Garnet's SSB, Lightning's SSB, the two Agrias Relics and Yuffie's Headband are probably the most important items.

See you on the other side.
(and at level 20, it's my third highest RES, behind Jecht's bandana and the Nu Khai Armlet)
Pull 4: Nada
Pull 5: Defender x2, Mystery Veil, Chameleon Robe, Genji Shield
Okay, I think I'm done. I'll live without the armband or Agrias' shield. 150 Mythril to put forward to other events.
1x Grand Armor
1x Nu Khai Armband
1x Defender
5x Kaiser Shield (the hell, game?)
Spellbinder Dagger, Chameleon Robe and various off-banner 5 stars that will all become Rosetta Stones before long.

Now to scrape together the last bit of mythril I can over the next couple of days for one more 11 pull, but my streak lately has not been so hot.
